Blaz Sliskovic signs up for a tough job in Alba Iulia

Unirea Alba Iulia announced that the former coach of Bosnia’s national team (2002-2006) will take over the struggling team that parted ways with Adrian Falub, three games after the second half of season. Sliskovic will conduct his first training session tomorrow, when he’ll try to make a first impression on the roster available and see if he can help this newly promoted club avoid an immediate return to the second division. Unirea lies in 17th place, 7 points away from safety, and Sliskovic will have to deliver exactly what’s expected from Ceahlaul’s recently appointed coach, Zoran Filipovic: miracles.
